I ordered Mongolian Beef and my husband ordered General TSO's chicken. All the other restaurants where we tried these two dishes they were very spicy, but it is almost like they forgot to put any spice at all. It was super bland and without seasoning. read more

After watching a tiktok about how 3 star Chinese restaurants are always the best, we decided to order delivery from here after a move. The food was piping hot and flavorful. I especially loved the egg roll that came with it, can't wait to try more dishes! The meat and veggies were all fresh and cooked perfectly read more

Food had no flavor and chicken was rubbery. I had to throw it away. Totally disgusting

Been a while since I ordered from here due to reviews, but tonight my wife and I decided to give them another shot since we've always had an amazing experience pre-covid! Let me tell you the six person family pack everything was amazing and fresh and REASONABLY PRICED! The team at Hot Wok really turned it around and went back to pre-pandemic quality and service! Thank you we will be back! read more

Food is always consistent with flavors and we know what to expect. We like the large cut on the veggies and protein we feel it allows you to taste the pepper/onion/broccoli and masked by the sauce or protein. Solid, quick, reliable chines go to. read more

Delish, ordered gereral tos and garlic chicken. All was very tasty and a large portion. We are not from this area so it was a good surprise to find this spot. read more

Went to Hot Wok for my Friday night dinner. Was not impressed with the restaurant itself when I walked in. Things behind the counter looked extremely nasty and dirty. I ordered some General Tso's chicken with the Lo Mein which I was charged extra for. The chicken was not anything to write home about. It wasn't spicy at all and there were lots of pieces that were solely pieces of breeding with no chicken inside. Some of the pieces of chicken seemed a bit under cooked. Overall, I would give the chicken a 3/5. However, the Lo Mein was what really got me upset. I paid extra to have the Lo Mein and was expecting something good. The noodles were flavorless and didn't have any taste. It was almost as if you were eating cardboard. Overall the Lo Mein would get a 1/5. Wasn't really impressed with the atmosphere or the food here. I probably will not be coming back. read more

Food was bland and tasteless, they don't even give you duck sauce for your egg roll or hot mustard. Very disappointed and would not recommend. read more

I got wonton soup, beef lo mein, and egg rolls. It was all very good and ready very quickly.

Amazing food, ate in, very hot and authentic. I had the pork lo mein and crab Rangoon. Best around Weddington. Sweet tea was the best and served in a huge glass. I'll definitely come back! read more

Hot Wok has stopped caring disappointing general TSO absolutely no sauce the spring rolls are greasey from the first bite I just hope they start caring again!! read more

Great service very quick & tasty. I ordered the sesame chicken and was very impressed.

Gave Hot Wok another try. Much improved! Ordered General Tso's, Beef with Broccoli, and Vegetable Delight which all hit he mark (very good) this time. Everything was fresh, hot and delicious. Also ordered House Special Fried Rice which was ok. Very happy with the food this visit and give an upgrade to 4 stars. read more

The best spring roll I have ever had! Vegetables were crisp and delicious. I was weary of some of the 1 star reviews but am so glad that I chose to order. I got the hibachi chicken and it was very tasty. read more

I took out the family combination, the combination was perfect for four people $36.99, you get to choose four entrées with white rice or fried, soup we chose egg drop soup which was excellent , then 4 eggrolls and we got to order different main dishes, I ordered lo mein chicken with vegetables, there was one ordered lo mein with just vegetables, lo mein with shrimp & vegetables, The last one we ordered was lo mein with vegetables and pork. For a family this is the best combination to order ,there was leftovers for the next day. And of course we had our fortune cookies that was fun to read. read more

If you're looking for decent quality Chinese fast food, this is not the place for the price. Pepper steak was very rubbery. spring rolls - wings - were all not fresh. Maybe we just had a bad batch? read more

Hot Wok - two take out containers of food with chopsticks - Chinese Near Me - Matthews, North Carolina

horrible. food is inedible and cold and tasteless. the store could care less. this place should be out of busines!!!! waste of money. go elsewhere. read more

I've been looking for a Chinese food fix since I've been in the area and this definitely wasn't it. They do get a 2 because of friendly service and they have great shrimp egg rolls. I ordered house lomein lunch special for a up charge... It was far more rice than lomein, and the lomein left lots to be desired, lacking flavor and freshness the two components which are key in a lomein in my opinion. The crab Rangoon was disgusting. I'm used to star shaped or triangle shaped sweet crispy Rangoon. This Rangoon was a pouch of cream cheese that was greasy dense deep fried mess! I might stop by for a egg roll until I find a better place in the area but I will definitely not be ordering anything else off of the menu. read more

Pretty decent Chinese food! Everything I have tried here has been slightly better than average, however the customer service is great. The woman that runs the front is always super friendly and welcoming, and its the little things like that that will keep me coming back. read more

This is a Hidden gem! My favorite Chinese place! Candi runs the counter, she is awesome! There is seatting inside, and the take out is Fresh and Quick! read more

Hot Wok - outside of a restaurant at night - Chinese Near Me - Matthews, North Carolina

See all

I'll admit - I'm not a huge fan of Chinese food, except for one thing: Mei Fun! I've had this dish from multiple Chinese restaurants and no one can do it as well as Hot Wok. I always get Singapore style, and theirs actually contains visible meat within it - unlike "Panda" restaurant a few miles down the road! Hot Wok's tea is great too! read more

Hot Wok - Singapore Mei Fun: yum yum! - Chinese Near Me - Matthews, North Carolina

Out of all the Chinese places if had in the area for take out, this has been the best. I got the Pu Pu platter and the chicken lo mein. The lo mein was actually flavored, and not plant like every restaurant's seems to be. read more

Best Chinese take out in the area! Coming from NYC and a Chinese family, I definitely know what great Chinese food is, and this place does it. The owners and their kids are kind and provide great service. Food is authentic, fresh, and tasty! Highly suggest Hot Wok as your go-to for Chinese food! read more

Wow- I've tried several places and this one does it for me. The win ton soup is delicious-won tons are soft and full of meat. The egg rolls are crunchy and flavorful. Sesame chicken tender and juicy. But one thing I love are the crunchy noodles for the soup. Homemade- not store bought. Thank you! We'll be back!!!!! read more

I was in the mood for some good Chinese food and thought I would try Hot Wok as it is near my house. Sadly the food I tried was barely edible. I ordered Pepper Steak and General Tao's Chicken. I couldn't even chew the pepper steak. Meat was of poor quality and sauce was meh. The chicken wasn't much better. No real spice to the sauce. Very sweet. Tons of breading, tons of sauce and little poor quality pieces of chicken. Breading was mushy and not crisp. Would not order from where again. read more

Went in there with hopes that we we have another option besides Kami; unfortunately this restaurant does not serve fresh food which is to evident at first bite! Tried Moo Goo, mixed vegetables and wonton soup all of which I had to throw away after first bite! I recommend changing strategy, use fresh ingredients, also much less oil, and raise the price if you have to! Kami still best option in town... read more

We love this Chinese restaurant and I'm glad it's so close to our home. They give large portions for a very expected and reasonable price and everything is always very fresh tasting. The menu is the same as any other small storefront Chinese restaurant you've ever been to, so don't look for anything surprising or special. Their daughter may answer the phone sometimes to help out mom, so if you have a special request, make sure you ask for her mother. read more

Good food. Good prices. What more can I say? Lunch special are good and inexpensive. The quantities are way more than enough to get full. For dinner, my family will occasionally get the family pack. 4 dinner items with rice, soup and four eggrolls. Good deal. read more

This place is pretty good! The servings are VERY generous and the selection is your typical Americanized Chinese food. I asked for a variation of a dish that wasn't on the menu, and the chef was happy to oblige. I asked if she would apply a different dish to the entree special prices (General Tso's Tofu instead of chicken) and she said no. We are in, which was fine, but we were served mostly in to-go containers. They were very nice. Over all, it was a good experience. We would come back. read more

The food here is extremely fresh and the best Chinese takeout I have found it since I landed in Charlotte area 14 years ago. The steamed dumplings are off the charts delicious. I have eaten at Hot Wok 5 or 6 times and they are consistently good and food is always very fresh. read more

The chicken was rubbery, no crispy pieces. The fried rice had little to no veggies. The Lo mein comes in one size only, no other option. Pricey for a combo plate at almost $9. Overall bland and almost a chemical taste. Definitely will drive to New China. read more

Tried sesame chicken lunch special - lets just say I am sorry I did - no redeeming value in rice eggroll or chicken. Chicken rubbery - dark meat and battered heavy. Rice had a few peas and carrots - no taste. Live and learn. Not for my liking. Keep searching for NY style chinese food read more

Very disappointed for our first try and will not be going back. Steamed dumplings were boiled and the wrap was shredded so the filling was like a sponge. Beef lo mein was average, but were was the beef or vegetables and the noodles were 3 times thicker than I have ever seen before. The egg roll had good taste but hardly any filling. I will not talk about the General Tso Chicken. read more

Awesome service. Love going to this restaurant they treat you just like family and it's amazing how they always remember my name and same order! We love how the owner makes suggestions off the menu and serve unique chinese food. Wow what a gem! read more

The service was fast. Unfortunately, that's the best that can be said. The food, in my case, sesame chicken, was greasy to the point it was dripping through the plate. It was also very bland. Prices are high for the food. Don't go here. read more

For the price & for what you get it's really not that good. There are other Chinese restaurants in the area that are better for half the price. read more

It is average Chinese although better than the other take-out Chinese options locally. My husband and I both ordered the General Tso's chicken. I like that the chunks of chicken were smaller and bite-sized compared to most takeout places. The sauce was very sweet which I typically like a little more heat in my sauce. The place was packed so it must be pretty popular! read more

always fast and fresh...family love to eat here and take out...prices are fair and serving large..so come hungry

I am giving 1 star because I can't give zero. Never again. Food and place both smell bad. Staff is rude and food tastes nasty.

The food is good, but they put rice under your main course. I wish they didn't do that. I would be willing to pay a little more for a main course in the dinner combination plates that didn't have rice layered under it. read more
